BLUE MONDAY


It's Blue Monday today and it's time to think Blue!



These pictures I took at our Vacation Home on the Colorado River in Parker, Arizona. I have the place decorated in Red, White and Blue and these are two shelfs I have in the dinning area
I love Blue Graniteware
I painted both shelfs and also made and painted the game board from a old piece of wood. I also love the two cobalt blue old glass bottles I bought at a Antique Store
These are some vintage blue dishes I have displayed on the wall too














I love this vintage blue plate
This is a blue Mosaic picture frame I made from blue china pieces
Thanks for visiting my Blog on Blue Monday. Please click here and go see Smiling Sally's Blog for more Blue Monday pictures!

Very nice wall groupings. I have the same Cape Cod souvenir plate. I showed it in my Travel Souvernir post, part 2.

Hi Anne,
I love the blue at your vacation house! The shelves are fun to look at with all those pretties on them. I love blue plates and you have a nice collection here.
Have a great week!

Cool picture frame you crafted there. I'm almost afraid to ask where the pieces came from. I hope they weren't the result of a disaster!

You've got some pretty cool blue plates there. I am also fond of Graniteware. I love to use it when I camp. I bet it was hard to smash that china to create that cute picture frame. Hope you have a fun Blue Monday! ~ Robyn
